So something like this, then?

static inline bool inet_check_bound_oif(const struct sock *sk, int oif)
{
        if (!oif || !sk->sk_bound_dev_if || oif == sk->sk_bound_dev_if)
                return true;

#ifdef CONFIG_NET_L3_MASTER_DEV
        return l3mdev_master_ifindex_by_index(sock_net(sk), oif) ==
                sk->sk_bound_dev_if;
#endif

        return false;
}

and then in the various sendmsg functions:

        if (!inet_check_bound_oif(sk, oif))
                return -EINVAL;
